Former footballers Jasmin and Anne-Fleur Dupin are currently raising money to treat their sick mother Liliane. Thirty years ago, after a number of unexpected operations under anesthesia, she developed ME (myalgic encephalomyelitis).
“On the outside, when she has her makeup on and because of her personality, you can barely see anything about her, but on the inside she is falling apart,” the twins wrote on the GoFundMe page. According to Jasmine (formerly VV Alkmaar and SC Heerenveen) and Anne-Fleur (formerly VV Alkmaar), their mother is in bed 22 hours a day due to illness.
“She is barely able to perform minimal daily tasks, such as eating breakfast or taking a shower. She can barely leave the house, but if she did, she would suffer a major setback from which she would have to recover for days to weeks. “The system has broken down. As a result, her body is in a state of fight and flight 24 hours a day and her body can never rest or recover.”
The sisters continue: “She suffers from inflammation all over her body, problems walking and standing, severe pain in the muscles, joints and intestines every day and huge headaches (migraines). In addition, she is tired every moment of the day, really exhausted.” “Sleeping is a big problem because of this disease. She has 5% energy in her body and her battery can never recharge. It’s getting worse every year and we hate to see this. We (her twin daughters Jasmine and Anne-Fleur) take great care of her and the three of us try to enjoy the smallest The things.”
Meanwhile, Lillian also developed breast cancer. I overcame this disease after many treatments and radiation operations. Later, the mother of the soccer twins also developed cervical cancer. “After several interventions, this is still there and her body also has to work hard for this disease. The three of us are a strong team, but the match is becoming more difficult to finish,” the sisters wrote.
Not much is known about me and there is no therapeutic treatment in the Netherlands. They both know there is a treatment in Australia that can cure me to a great extent. “This is an advanced treatment that has been used for over 25 years by the Neurophysiotherapy Institute of Australia. Many Middle Eastern patients from the Netherlands have already gone here and have now largely regained their health and lives.”
“A six-week treatment in Australia (with long daily follow-up in the Netherlands) ensures that the immune system starts working properly again and eliminates the dysregulation of the nervous system. The nervous system has also been reset. We, Ken Weir (founder) and his team are convinced that This treatment will restore the health of our mothers,” Anne Fleur and Jasmine wrote.
However, this treatment is very expensive: total costs are estimated at 46,000 euros. “It is a big step for us to put this out there and ask for help. The three of us cannot afford this amount. We hope that with your help we can raise this amount so that we can go to Australia in April,” the two concluded the call. At the time of writing, €11,710 has been raised.
